There seems to be a bug when viewing this instance:

(Heh, it's at least way better than accessing lemmy.world right now...)

Basically the title.

Here's a quick background, though (because I have nothing better to do today). Suffered a failed EOS update on my laptop and it refused to boot. Rather than fix it, I decided to do something I've been thinking about for a while now: I installed NixOS (I still use Arch on my VM, btw).

Problem is it's been a bit long since I last set up my laptop I can't remember everything I did on it. Lol.

So what do you guys install after changing distros? What are your must-have applications (for any distro)? I'm already running zen kernel, got bitwarden up and running, hardened firefox and installed ungoogled chromium. Seems there's no standalone pihole (yet?) for Nix so I'll be checking that out as well. Thanks in advance for your input!

release notes: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/releases/tag/0.18.1

Last week I was asking about when and why you started using Linux, thank you everyone who took their time to write an answer! It was interesting to read all of your guys stories and I was surprised just how far back some of them go.

Now I am curious about your guys DE/WMs. What do you use? What do you like/don't like about it? What have you tried? What is you go to? Any you absolutely can not stand the sight of? Any that you tried that disappointed you?

Once again no judgment, just curious about peoples experiences.

Hey there. Like many of us I'm new to lemmy, and have also never really moderated anything before elsewhere. I'm thinking about starting a community here, but I don't really have the time or willpower to moderate a community if it starts to grow too much. It could be nice if there were others that wanted to help out down the line, but I'm unsure if they'll be able to if they don't have an account on this instance. Does anyone know?

My feeling is that it probably doesn't matter, but I'm unsure. Also, just out of curiosity, is it possible to make communities on other instances?

It’s Saturday. Reddit apps have shutdown. Major lemmy instances are failing under the strain. lemmy.world is trying to do a version upgrade in all this. beehaw worker bees are swarming. How are you enjoying this ~~lemon~~lemmy party?

I am just very curious what peoples stories are. And if you are not using Linux what is holding you back?

No judgement of any kind, just pure curiosity.

Hey Lemmy 😊 users! I just discovered 🚀 something amazing: Lemmy now supports 😍 emotes! 🥳 We can express ourselves 💁‍♂️ in a whole new way. And guess what? You can suggest 🤔 cool emotes right in the comments! 💬 Share your ideas below 😄 and let's make Lemmy even more fun 😃 and expressive. Happy emoting, everyone! 😊🎉🎨💡🤩🔥🌟🥰💪🚀😎✨🙌💬🎉

it started popping up on lemmy 0.18 instances for me and it's inconsistent, sometimes refreshing or updating the feed or even posting something there would make the buttons pop up (as new elements that is).

I can't interact with them so something is definitely wrong.

In the USA we are approaching July 4 (Independence Day), which is a major holiday. People tend to string together a few days of vacation and take off a nice chunk of time (I am!). My husband finally comes home this evening, we have Friday off (we work a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off) and then we will (EDIT: NOT BE go on a 4 day trip in the Sawtooth mountains, due to snowpack, but we will be working on our teardrop trailer)!

How about you all? I know some of you are in Europe, and it's also vacation season there. What's shakin'?

I get the perpetual "waiting" icon on the browser interface and some kind of JSON string error in Jerboa (I would have to screen shot it, it flashes up and disappears). Is it the server? Lemmy in general? Something else?

I made this thread in case someone is looking for any specific replacement for specific reddit subs (or something else) and hopefully someone might be able to chime in with some good suggestions.

Just curious. On weekends (usually on Saturdays), I usually go out to eat and try a new restaurant or two. Sundays are down time so it can get pretty boring (like right now).

Do you guys have any routines during weekends? Drop some ideas of stuff to do. Your brother from another mother is bored as hell over here. Lol.

I wrote a small script to ban the bots that joined. I am pretty sure most of the accounts are actual bots but there is still a small chance i might ban someone unjustified.

If youre a sublem mod or an admin and you haven't checked it out yet, do so :)

A lot of us left reddit because it became too big-corpo'ey. Let's not let another big corpo into our space that we're building so that they can ruin it from the inside

Has it officially dropped from the devs? When can we expect this server to update so it can work with Jerboa again?

Just felt like getting to know our little community a bit better.

I got up extra early today to take my husband to the airport this morning after his flight was rebooked from yesterday evening. He's headed to Germany for a big birthday celebration with his peers from growing up. I think it's super cool they are all still friends with each other!

I'm also working from home using a computer that unfortunately isn't running Arch, but if it were running Arch, I would definitely tell you.

Just got started with lemmy. What are the communities you like the most?

I've been using neovim for a good while by now and it's become my notes app, code editor, and IDE. This is thanks to the vast ecosystem of plugins available to neovim extending it past anything the developers would be able to think of and they make this way of using neovim not only possible; but also viable.

I personally use quite a few plugins nowadays, but I'm curious as to what all of you tend to use.

neovim/nvim-lspconfig (pre-baked lsp configuration for neovim)
ms-jpq/coq_nvim (fast CoC/YCM replacement utilizing builtin lsp)
ms-jpq/coq.artifacts (snippets for coq)
ms-jpq/chadtree (nerdtree replacement)
lewis6991/gitsigns.nvim (git integration)
norcalli/nvim-colorizer.lua (color preview)

PS: if you use another text editor feel free to show off plugins for that too.

It might be a better move to go through the official channels for those who have them available, rather than using bots to delete the posts and comments. Of course, those of us who will make this request and have it complied with by reddit, will need to periodically check back to make sure they don't sneakily restore our content. I've read posts and comments of people who deleted their content months ago and noticed reddit restored it now.

Edit: I know its all in German, but with a little translation you can get the necessary information

This logo is not horrible anymore, it's still not vector graphics though. Here's the gimp file if anyone cares

I just logged in and checked my reddit account, and all my deleted posts have come back.

Hey guys, anyone else having trouble with lemmy.ml? I'm still in pending status after a couple days. I've tried the toggle trick on the subscribe button, but no go. Basically all lemmy.ml subscriptions are still pending, which means content from their sublems doesnt show in my feed while browsing my default setting: Subscribed

Is this because of the massive influx of users? Shouldn't they have dealt with that by now?

EDIT: Since a lot of people asked me: If you want to financially support the instance you can buy me a coffee on ko-fi Please only do it if you can afford it.
